Benchmark performance

accuracy % · higher is better
Percentile vs all tracked models 91.6th5 independent measurements
Percentile per $/Mtok 30.5

We hold no per-benchmark accuracy scores for this model yet, so it has no accuracy average. That is a gap in our coverage, not a sign the model is untested — independent evaluators often publish a composite index for a new model long before releasing its per-benchmark numbers. The percentile above is its standing across the independent composites below.

Independent composite scores
  • AA Intelligence Index: 60.9 (Artificial Analysis composite across reasoning, knowledge and coding evals)
  • AA Agentic Index: 58.7 (Tool use, planning, autonomy)
  • AA-Omniscience Index: 30.5 (−100–100)
  • GDPval-AA v2: 1749.2 ELO (Real-world work tasks, human baseline = 1000)
  • LMSYS Chatbot Arena: 1463.6 ELO (Human preference)
How it stacks up
  • Ranks #4 of 154 comparably-measured models by percentile score, across 5 independent measurements
  • Ranks #85 of 154 comparably-tested models by normalized performance per dollar
